Are you aware of any issues with delays in changes to view configuration specifications being reflected in ClearCase explorer etc?
Added following line in a text file and included in the config spec.
element * CHECKEDOUT
element * /main/LATEST
In ClearCacse explorer view showed elements in main/LATEST.
Later changed the text file to
element * CHECKEDOUT
element * /main/branch_name/LATEST
element * /main/LATEST
saved it and closed.
Refreshed the view and view was pointing to main/LATEST even after stop and starting the view.
confused with the result, side tracked to another task and after 15 mins when I refreshed I saw latest from branch.
Any reason ?
Your branch might now always originate from main.
Try rather the following config spec:
element * CHECKEDOUT
element * .../branch_name/LATEST
element * /main/LATEST
